Sublimator made a very useful plugin for those who frequently switches from the editor in the browser to check the changes.
By this principle operates Web IDE. Here’s a post in their blog about it: Do not bother saving files anymore
Here’s the code:

Put this in some py file and it will run whenever your window loses focus. That script will make sure the file is a project file and needing to be saved.
Many thanks to Sublimator! http://forums.disenteria.ru/style_emoticons/default/agree.gif
